Overview

One click to close any overlay on any website.

Close any overlay on any website with a single click or shortcut keys (ctrl+shift+x or cmd+shift+x) !
Important features:
* It doesn't require any permissions.
* No performance impact on your browsing. It will only activate when triggered.
Have you ever been to a website that displays an overlay and masks the content with a transparent background before seeing its content ?
This extension allows you to close easily those overlays with one click !
I built it for myself, and I use it every day, I'm glad that I can share this extension with everyone who is annoyed just like me ! And we are not alone, there is entire community who hates overlay popups, http://tabcloseddidntread.com/

To remember X key, think of X as a close button.
